Document storage and backup solutions

Conventional approaches to backup are not good enough

Poor “unstructured” conventional backup methodologies, such as tape, CD Rom, and external
hard drive, etc, are not good enough because of:

• High failure rates during data restoration
• Difficulty in detecting problems with backup before performing restoration
• Slow read / write speed
• High maintenace costs
• Expensive offsite storage of tape library
• Reduced flexibility for backup caused by fixed capacity per backup media
• Increased likelihood of occurrence of negligence-induced problems (e.g. lost or misplaced data)
